Pros
Strong, stable bank in the midst of a financial crisis. I have been impressed with the opportunities I have been able to pursue. Even if I had to push a little harder to have the chance to move up, I still was able to do so. Thank you for that.
Cons
Lousy pay compared to other financial institutes. As a banker, it is very frustrating how difficult it is to have direct lending approve any loans, or lines of credit. I was disappointed with my training. When I started as a teller, I was in the position for over a month before I was able to go to my first training class. When I moved to Personal Banker, I was in the position for 5 months before I went to the first phase of banker school, and even as I write this it was 4 months ago that I completed phase one and have yet to begin phase 2. It seems like I had to be extremely forceful in order to have anything happen.
